What we do here
Our services in Selly Oak
Serviced accommodation management
We run the property as a premium short let -- listing, pricing, guests, cleaning and reporting.
Guaranteed rent
A fixed monthly figure whether the property is occupied or not, with the void risk on us.
Sell a property that needs work
Tired, unmodernised or inherited property bought as it stands, with no agent fees.
Property investment and sourcing
Off-market stock that needs work, matched to budget, area and appetite for works.

How the figure is reached
We price against live availability, not against last year's spreadsheet. The market a property competes in changes week to week, and a rate that was right in March is rarely right in October.

How it runs day to day
Guest messages get answered quickly because response time affects placement on most channels. It is a ranking factor, not just good manners.
Selly Oak
Where this fits, and where it doesn't
This suits an owner who wants the property to work without becoming a second job. It does not suit someone who wants to approve every booking — that is a different relationship and it does not run well.
Selly Oak
The compliance side
Where a council requires planning consent for a particular use, that is a question for the council and not for us to answer on their behalf. We will point an owner at the right place.
Selly Oak
The limits, stated up front
We are not a building contractor. Where work is needed we introduce the trades we use, and the contract for that work sits between the owner and the trade, priced before it starts.
Selly Oak
Getting started
An initial conversation is worth more than a form. Most of what matters — constraints, timing, what the owner actually wants — does not fit in a field.

Your Questions
What Selly Oak landlords ask us.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
What is the first step for a Selly Oak landlord?
A free appraisal. We look at the property, the location and the local demand picture, and give you a straight answer on whether short-let management or guaranteed rent makes sense — including when it does not.
Do you charge for the appraisal?
No. There is no fee and no obligation.
How is my income paid?
Monthly, with a statement showing what was earned and what was deducted.
What if my property needs work first?
We will say so. If the work is worth doing we can introduce you to the trades we use; if the property would be better sold as-is, we will say that too.
